This unique event combines two ghost haunting tours and locations – At Bartow’s Stanford Inn you will challenge your senses from fabulous food and lodging to ghost hunting and the possibility to interact with the Spirits of the Night. Friday begins with a walking ghost tour and a “behind the scenes” tour of the 150 year old Historic Courthouse where you will learn the “haunt history” and strange happenings followed by reviewing “evidence” from previous paranormal investigations at the Inn. Saturday night, you’ll travel to Fantasy of Flight for “nightFlight”, an exciting after-hours program that offers adventurous visitors four full hours to “Explore the Unexplained.” Apollo Paranormal Investigations’ Cliff Kennedy says, “On a paranormal activity scale of 1 to 10, Fantasy of Flight’s aircraft collection rates an astonishing 11″. This weekend of supernatural exploration and psychic fun is limited to a small number of guests – double occupancy is required – so book early.
Cost: 149.00 a night per person, double occupancy, with a 2-night minimum. Includes room, dinner Friday night, lunch on Saturday, and Sunday brunch. Also includes tour tickets for The Stanford Inn’s Spirits of the Night tour and Fantasy of Flight’s nightFlight. Tour T-Shirt included.

A little research found the following information about General Francis Bartow.
Colonel (posthumously brevetted to General) Francis Stebbins Bartow (September 6, 1816 – July 21, 1861) was an attorney, Confederate States of America political leader, and military officer during the early months of the American Civil War. He was an inaugural representative to the Confederate Provisional Congress, where he led efforts to prepare for the coming war.
Bartow was killed at the First Battle of Bull Run, becoming the first brigade commander in the Confederate States Army to die in combat. He was the first brigade commander to be killed in action during the Civil War. (The first general officer to be killed in the war was Confederate Brig. Gen. Robert S. Garnett at Corrick’s Ford, July 13, 1861.)
